Improving the description of solvent pairwise interactions using local solute/solvent three-body functions. The case of halides and cabroxylates in aqueous environment

Résumé

We propose a general strategy to remediate force‐field artifacts in describing pairwise interactions among similar molecules M in the vicinity of another chemical species, C, like water molecules interacting at short distance from a monoatomic ion. This strategy is based on introducing a three‐body potential energy term that alters the pairwise interactions among M‐type molecules when they lie at short range from the species C. In other words the species C is the center of a space domain where the pairwise interactions among the molecules M is altered. Here, we apply it to improve the description of the water interactions provided by the polarizable water model TCPE/2013 in the vicinity of halides, from F- to At-, and of the prototypical carboxylate anion CH3COO-. We show the accuracy and the transferability of such an approach to investigate not only the hydration process of single anions but also of a salt solution NH4+ in aqueous phase. This strategy can be used to remediate the drawbacks of any kind of force fields.
